_________________________
Abomasnow and Milotic was the big winner and with that we proceed onto step 2, deciding the type of team we want to create.
While not all styles of play will seem to fit our core, I feel this is a pretty comprehensive list of the current styles.
As a reminder, here are the Pokemon we will be building around and their items and movesets:
Abomasnow @ Choice Scarf
Trait: Snow Warning
EVs: 12 HP / 248 SAtk / 248 Spd
Timid Nature (+Spd, -Atk)
- Blizzard
- Giga Drain
- Hidden Power [Fire]
- Sheer Cold
Milotic @ Water Gem
Trait: Marvel Scale
EVs: 6 HP / 252 SAtk / 252 Spd
Modest Nature (+SAtk, -Atk)
- Blizzard
- Scald
- Hail
- Protect
And now your choices, please
BOLD VOTE the type of team we want to fit these two into. Only vote for one.
Goodstuff - A general compilation of Pokemon with no inherent strategy, but work well together
Trick Room - A slow team that takes advantage of the move Trick Room with bulky, slow Pokemon
Sun - A team centered around the Ability Drought and the move Sunny Day with other Abilities like Chlorophyll and Solar Power
Hail - A team centered around the Ability Snow Warning and the move Hail with other Abilities like Snow Cloak providing boosts and residual damage
Sand - A team centered around the Ability Sandstream and the move Sandstorm with Rock type Pokemon and Pokemon with the Abilities Sand Rush and Sand Force
Rain - A team centered around the Ability Drizzle and the move Rain Dance to take advantage of various abilities and Pokemon
Tailwind - A team similar to Goodstuff but heavily reliant upon Tailwind to get its attackers faster than the opponent
